WINNIPEG Demand for specialized bikes is high but the funds to build them is not there, according to the Children’s Rehabilitation Foundation. Typically the foundation receives about ten requests for the bikes this time of year, but with a lack of recreation opportunities brought on by the pandemic that list has grown to 25. “Getting out and riding a bike is not only enjoyable, it’s therapeutic, it provides physical health benefits,” said Adell Gauthier, fund development and event coordinator for the Children s Rehabilitation Foundation. “Being able to ride a bike with the rest of your family is one way you can get outside, enjoy the nice weather and have happiness.”
